"content": "A source of new Fediverse accounts is dev.brighteon.social.\n\n46,862 were discovered during the past day. \n\nBrighteon is known for spreading misinformation and conspiracy theories all over Facebook and Twitter, and it looks like they’re trying their hand at the Fediverse now. \n\nI’ve looked at the accounts on that server, and the overwhelming majority look like bots. The goal seems to be spamming misinformation.\n\nPersonally, I recommend putting brighteon.com on #[0].\n\nhttps://botsin.space/@mastodon_daily_active_users/110107223841240128\n\nhttps://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/110/107/289/557/780/862/original/50a7989fe8b7d592.jpeg",
